Unlike the other networks, The CW hadn't announced their full writers' strike-influenced new line-up last month. Today however they have revealed their new schedule, which includes plenty of reality series -- including the returning America's Next Top Model, Pussycat Dolls Present and Beauty and the Geek -- plus new nights for several other shows.

The entire CW Monday night comedy lineup will move to Sundays. This lineup will actually include several new episodes, because Aliens in America has seven original episodes still unaired while Everybody Hates Chris (which was able to finish all 22 episodes before the strike) has 12 more. These two series will be accompanied by repeats of Girlfriends and The Game.

After returning on Tuesdays on January 15th, Reaper, which has three unaired episodes left, will then move to a new time slot on Thursdays on February 28th, behind Smallville, which has six unaired episodes left. With Reaper taking its place, Supernatural in the meantime will be temporarily off the schedule, but Variety notes that the series (which has four original episodes left unaired) will return, unlike Life is Wild, which is likely gone for good.

Gossip Girl repeats will shift to Monday nights, paired with the second season of the Pussycat Dolls reality series. The new season of the latter is titled Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious and is about the formation of a new girl group.
